COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Keg & Bottle. Special Collaboration between Nogne, Mikkeller and BrewDog which is a recipe based on all three brewers big stouts, Nøgne Ø Dark Horizon, Mikkeller Black and BrewDog Tokyo*.

Bottle from Erzbierschof’s advent calendar. What a great, great craft! Aroma of strong coffee, dark chocolate, ripe dark fruits, some alcohol, some vanilla, in a beautiful balance. Intense taste, bitter and sweet and roasted and creamy and softly carbonated and balanced and strong and beautiful. Long boozy warmy palate, intense dark chocolate and coffee and nuts. Outstanding flavour mix and balanced, very strong yet still not overdone. One of the best beers I ever had.

A slightly better version of Tokyo*. I must admit I’m having some trouble identifying exactly what Nøgne Ø and Mikkeller brougth to the table on this one but I like it. Pitch black, aroma of dark roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, soy. The dark malt and chocolate exists heavy in the taste as well, but with the cranberries from the Tokyo* less dominant. A bit too much alcohol in the finish, but it does bring a nice, warming sensation. Excellent Imperial Stout!
